Stack Power

Utilising the size of your stack is a powerful tool in poker.

Dominik Nitsche has a six-figure stack and used that, in position, to take on the other biggest stack at his table. Even though Pietro Paolo Sibione had a similar sized stack he must've been wary taking on Nitsche out position. Nitsche can use that psychology to his advantage.

Sibione opened to 1,300 from second position and called when Nitsche three-bet to 3,500 from the hijack. The flop fell and Sibione snap folded to a 3,300 c-bet from the triple crowning hunting starlet.
